2.0 GENERAL
2.1 CHECKING PRODUCT RECEIVEDUpon receiving unit, inspect it for any shipping damage. Claims for damage, eitherapparent or concealed, should be filed immediately with the shipping company.Check heat pump model number, electrical characteristics and accessories todetermine if they are correct. Check system components (evaporator coil, condens-ing unit, evaporator blower, etc.) to make sure they are properly matched.The infor-mation contained in this manual has been prepared to assist in the proper installa-tion, operation and maintenance of the heat pump system. Improper installation, orinstallation not made in accordance with these instructions, can result in unsatisfac-
tory operation and/or dangerous conditions, and can cause the related warranty notto apply.
Read this manual and any instructions packaged with separate equipment requiredto make up the system prior to installation. Retain this manual for future reference.
To achieve optimum efficiency and capacity, the indoor cooling coils listed in theheat pump specification sheet should be used.
2.2 APPLICATIONBefore installing any heat pump equipment, a duct analysis of the structure and aheat gain calculation must be made. A heat gain calculation begins by measuring allexternal surfaces and openings that gain heat from the surrounding air and quanti-fying that heat gain. A heat gain calculation also calculates the extra heat loadcaused by sunlight and by humidity removal.
There are several factors that the installers must consider:• Outdoor unit location • Proper equipment evacuation• System refrigerant charge • Indoor unit airflow• Indoor unit blower speed • Supply and return air duct design and sizing• System air balancing • Diffuser and return air grille location and sizing

3.0 LOCATING UNIT3.1 CORROSIVE ENVIRONMENTThe metal parts of this unit may be subject to rust or deterioration if exposed to acorrosive environment. This oxidation could shorten the equipment’s useful life.Corrosive elements include, but are not limited to, salt spray, fog or mist in seacoastareas, sulphur or chlorine from lawn watering systems, and various chemical conta-minants from industries such as paper mills and petroleum refineries.
If the unit is to be installed in an area where contaminants are likely to be a prob-lem, special attention should be given to the equipment location and exposure.
• Avoid having lawn sprinkler heads spray directly on the unit cabinet.• In coastal areas, locate the unit on the side of the building away from the water-
front.
• Shielding provided by a fence or shrubs may give some protection, but cannotviolate minimum airflow and service access clearances.
• Elevating the unit off its slab or base enough to allow air circulation will helpavoid holding water against the basepan.
Regular maintenance will reduce the build-up of contaminants and help to protectthe unit’s finish.

• Do not obstruct the bottom drain opening in the heat pump base pan. It isessential to provide defrost condensate drainage to prevent possible refreezingof the condensation. Provide a base pad for mounting the unit, which is slightlypitched away from the structure. Route condensate off the base pad to an areawhich will not become slippery and result in personal injury.
• Where snowfall is anticipated, the heat pump must be elevated above the basepad to prevent ice buildup that may crush the tubing of the heat pump coil orcause fin damage. Heat pump units should be mounted above the averageexpected accumulated snowfall for the area.
3.5 CUSTOMER SATISFACTION ISSUES
• The heat pump should be located away from the living, sleeping and recre-
ational spaces of the owner and those spaces on adjoining property.• To prevent noise transmission, the mounting pad for the outdoor unit should
not be connected to the structure, and should be located sufficient distanceabove grade to prevent ground water from entering the unit.
3.6 UNIT MOUNTINGIf elevating the heat pump, either on a flat roof or on a slab, observe thefollowing guidelines.
• The base pan provided elevates the heat pump 2” [50.8 mm] above the basepad.
• If elevating a unit on a flat roof, use 4” x 4” [101.6 mm x 101.6 mm] (or equiva-lent) stringers positioned to distribute unit weight evenly and prevent noise andvibration (see Figure 2).
NOTE: Do not block drain openings shown in Figure 1.
• If unit must be elevated because of anticipated snow fall, secure unit and ele-vating stand such that unit and/or stand will not tip over or fall off. Keep in mindthat someone may try to climb on unit.
3.7 FACTORY-PREFERRED TIE-DOWN METHOD FOR OUTDOOR UNITSIMPORTANT: The Manufacturer’s approved/recommended method is a guide to securingequipment for wind and seismic loads. Other methods might provide the same result, butthe Manufacturer’s method is the only one endorsed by the Manufacturer for securingequipment where wind or earthquake damage can occur. Additional information is avail-able in the PTS (Product Technical Support) section of the Manufacturer’s websiteRheemote.net and can be found as a listing under each outdoor model. If you do nothave access to this site, your Distributor can offer assistance.

7.0 INTERCONNECTING TUBING7.1 VAPOR AND LIQUID LINESKeep all lines sealed until connection is made.
Make connections at the indoor coil first.
Refer to Line Size Information in Tables 2 and 3 for correct size and multipliers to beused to determine capacity for various vapor line diameters and lengths of run. Thelosses due to the lines being exposed to outdoor conditions are not included.
The factory refrigeration charge in the outdoor unit is sufficient for 15 feet [4.6 m] of
interconnecting lines. The factory refrigeration charge in the outdoor unit is sufficientfor the unit and 15 feet [4.6 m] of standard size interconnecting liquid and vaporlines. For different lengths, adjust the charge as indicated below.
1/4” ± .3 oz. per foot [6.35 mm ± 8.5 g]
5/16” ± .4 oz. per foot [7.9 mm ± 11.3 g]
3/8” ± .6 oz. per foot [9.5 mm ± 17 g]
1/2” ± 1.2 oz. per foot [12.7 mm ± 34 g]
7.2 MAXIMUM LENGTH OF LINESThe maximum length of interconnecting line is 150 feet [45.7 m]. Always use theshortest length possible with a minimum number of bends. Additional compressoroil is not required for any length up to 150 feet [45.7 m].
NOTE: Excessively long refrigerant lines cause loss of equipment capacity.
7.3 VERTICAL SEPARATIONKeep the vertical separation to a minimum. Use the following guidelines wheninstalling the unit:
1. DO NOT exceed the vertical separations as indicated on Table 3.
2. It is recommended to use the smallest liquid line size permitted to minimize sys-tem charge which will maximize compressor reliability.
3. Table 3 may be used for sizing horizontal runs.
7.4 TUBING INSTALLATIONObserve the following when installing correctly sized type “L” refrigerant tubingbetween the condensing unit and evaporator coil:
• If a portion of the liquid line passes through a hot area where liquid refrigerantcan be heated to form vapor, insulating the liquid line is required.
• Use clean, dehydrated, sealed refrigeration grade tubing.
• Always keep tubing sealed until tubing is in place and connections are to bemade.
• Blow out the liquid and vapor lines with dry nitrogen before connecting to theoutdoor unit and indoor coil. Any debris in the line set will end up plugging theexpansion device.
• As an added precaution it is recommended that a high quality, bi-directional fil-ter drier is installed in the liquid line.
• Do not allow the vapor line and liquid line to be in contact with each other. This
causes an undesirable heat transfer resulting in capacity loss and increasedpower consumption. The vapor line must be insulated.
• If tubing has been cut, make sure ends are deburred while holding in a positionto prevent chips from falling into tubing. Burrs such as those caused by tubingcutters can affect performance dramatically, particularly on small liquid linesizes.
• For best operation, keep tubing run as short as possible with a minimum num-ber of elbows or bends.
• Locations where the tubing will be exposed to mechanical damage should beavoided. If it is necessary to use such locations, the copper tubing should behoused to prevent damage.

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/rheem-condensor-service-manual-15pjl 11/40
• If tubing is to be run underground, it must be run in a sealed watertight chase
• Use care in routing tubing and do not kink or twist. Use a tubing bender on tvapor line to prevent kinking.
• Route the tubing using temporary hangers, then straighten the tubing ainstall permanent hangers. Line must be adequately supported.
• The vapor line must be insulated to prevent dripping (sweating) and preveperformance losses. Armaflex and Rubatex are satisfactory insulations for tpurpose. Use 1/2” [12.7 mm] minimum insulation thickness, additional insution may be required for long runs.
• Check Table 2 for the correct vapor line size. Check Table 3 for the correct uid line size.
7.5 TUBING CONNECTIONS
Indoor coils have only a holding charge of dry nitrogen. Keep all tube ends sealuntil connections are to be made.
• Use type “L” copper refrigeration tubing. Braze the connections with acceptindustry practices.
• Be certain both refrigerant shutoff valves at the outdoor unit are closed.
• Clean the inside of the fittings before brazing.
• Remove the cap and schrader core from service port to protect seals from he
damage.• Use an appropriate heatsink material around the copper stub and the serv
valves before applying heat.
• IMPORTANT: Do not braze any fitting with the TEV sensing bulb attached.
• Braze the tubing between the outdoor unit and indoor coil. Flow dry nitroginto a service port and through the tubing while brazing.
• The service valves are not backseating valves. To open the valves, remove tvalve cap with an adjustable wrench. Insert a 3/16” [4.7 mm] or 5/16” [7.9 mm] hwrench into the stem. Back out counterclockwise.
• Replace the valve cap finger tight then tighten an additional 1/2 hex flat fometal-to-metal seal.
7.6 LEAK TESTING• Pressurize line set and coil through service fittings with dry nitrogen to 1
PSIG [1034.2 kPa] maximum. Leak test all joints using liquid detergent. Ileak is found, relieve pressure and repair.

8.0 DEMAND DEFROST CONTROL AND8.0 HIGH/LOW PRESSURE CONTROLSThe demand defrost control is a printed circuit board assembly consisting of solidstate control devices with electro-mechanical outputs. The demand defrost controlmonitors the outdoor ambient temperature, outdoor coil temperature, and the com-pressor run-time to determine when a defrost cycle is required.
Enhanced Feature Demand Defrost Control: Has high and low pressure controlinputs with unique pressure switch logic built into the microprocessor to providecompressor and system protection without nuisance lock-outs. Cycles the compres-
sor off for 5 seconds at the beginning and end of the defrost cycle to eliminate theincreased compressor noise caused by rapidly changiing system pressures whenthe reversing valve switches. See section 8.7 for diagnostic flash codes for the twodiagnostic LED’s provided on the control.
8.1 DEFROST INITIATION
A defrost will be initiated when the three conditions below are satisfied:
1) The outdoor coil temperature is below 35°F.
2) The compressor has operated for at least 34 minutes with the outdoor coil tem-perature below 35°F.
3) The measured difference between the ambient temperature and the outdoorcoil temperature exceeds a certain threshold.
Additionally, a defrost will be initiated if six hours of accumulated compressor run-timehas elapsed without a defrost with the outdoor coil temperature below 35°F.
8.2 DEFROST TERMINATION
Once a defrost is initiated, the defrost will continue until fourteen minutes haselapsed or the coil temperature has reached the terminate temperature. The termi-nate temperature is factory set at 70°F, although the temperature can be changedto 50°F, 60°F, 70°F or 80°F by relocating a jumper on the board.
8.3 TEMPERATURE SENSORS
The coil sensor is clipped to the top tube on the outdoor coil at the point feed by thedistribution tubes from the expansion device (short 3/8” dia. tube). The air sensor islocated on the defrost control board.
If the ambient sensor fails the defrost control will initiate a defrost every 34 minuteswith the coil temperature below 35°F.
If the coil sensor fails the defrost control will not initiate a defrost.
8.4 TEST MODE
The test mode is initiated by shorting the TEST pins. In this mode of operation, theenable temperature is ignored and all timers are sped up by a factor of 240. To initi-ate a manual defrost, short the TEST pins. Remove the short when the systemswitches to defrost mode. The defrost will terminate on time (14 minutes) or whenthe termination temperature has been achieved. Short TEST pins again to termi-nate the defrost immediately.
8.5 TROUBLE SHOOTING DEMAND DEFROST OPERATION
Set the indoor thermostat select switch to heat and thermostat lever to a call forheat.
Jumper the “test pins” to put the unit into defrost. If the unit goes into defrost andcomes back out of defrost, the indication is that the control is working properly.
If the unit did not go into defrost using the test pins, check to ensure that 24V isbeing supplied to the control board. If 24V is present then replace the control.

8.6 HIGH/LOW PRESSURE CONTROL MONITORING
Status of high and low pressure controls is monitored by the enhanced featudemand defrost control and the following actions are taken.
High Pressure Control (optional) – Provides active protection in both cooling aheating modes at all outdoor ambient temperatures. The high pressure control is automatic reset type and opens at approximately 610 psig and closes at appromately 420 psig. The compressor and fan motor will stop when the high pressucontrol opens and will start again if the high side pressure drops to approximat420 psig when the automatic reset high pressure control resets. If the high pressucontrol opens 3 times within a particular call for heating or cooling operation, t
defrost control will lock out compressor and outdoor fan operation.Low Pressure Control (standard) – Provides active protection in both heating acooling modes at all outdoor ambient temperatures. The low pressure control is automatic reset type and opens at approximately 15 psig and closes at appromately 40 psig. Operation is slightly different between cooling and heating modes
Cooling Mode: The compressor and fan motor will stop when the low pressucontrol opens and will start again when the low side pressure rises to appromately 40 psig when the low pressure control automatically resets. If the lopressure switch opens 3 times within a particular call for cooling operation, tdefrost control will lock out compressor and outdoor fan operation.
Heating Mode: The compressor and fan motor will stop when the low pressucontrol opens and will start again when the low side pressure rises to appromately 40 psig when the low pressure control automatically resets. If the lopressure switch trips 3 times within 120 minutes of operation during a particu
call for heating operation, the defrost control will lock out compressor and odoor fan operation. If the lock-out due to low pressure occurs at an outdoambient temperature below 5°F, the defrost control will automatically exit tlock-out mode when the outdoor ambient temperature rises to 5°F. This featuis necessary since the low pressure control could possibly heave opened duethe outdoor ambient being very low rather than an actual system fault.
Exiting Lock-Out Mode: To exit the lock-out mode, remove 24 volts to the defrocontrol by removing power to indoor air-handler/furnace or by shorting the twdefrost control test pins together.
8.7 ENHANCED FEATURE DEFROST CONTROL DIAGNOSTIC CODES
9.0 START-UP – CHECKING AIRFLOWThe air distribution system has the greatest effect on airflow. The duct system istotally controlled by the contractor. For this reason, the contractor should use only
industry-recognized procedures. The correct air quantity is critical to air conditionisystems. Proper operation, efficiency, compressor life, and humidity control depenon the correct balance between indoor load and outdoor unit capacity. Excessiveindoor airflow increases the possibility of high humidity problems. Low indoor airfloreduces total capacity and causes coil icing. Serious harm can be done to the compressor by low airflow, such as that caused by refrigerant flooding. Heat pump systems require a specified airflow. Each ton of cooling requires between 375 and 45cubic feet of air per minute (CFM). See the manufacturer’s spec sheet for rated aiflow for the system being installed. Duct design and construction should be carefudone. System performance can be lowered dramatically through bad planning orworkmanship. Air supply diffusers must be selected and located carefully. Theymust be sized and positioned to deliver treated air along the perimeter of the spacIf they are too small for their intended airflow, they become noisy. If they are notlocated properly, they cause drafts. Return air grilles must be properly sized to caair back to the blower. If they are too small, they also cause noise. The installers

should balance the air distribution system to ensure proper quiet airflow to all roomsin the home. This ensures a comfortable living space.
These simple mathematical formulas can be used to determine the CFM in a resi-dential or light commercial system. Electric resistance heaters can use:
CFM = volts x amps x 3.413
SHC x temp rise
Gas furnaces can use:
CFM = Output Capacity in BTUH*
SHC x temp rise
*Refer to furnace data plate for furnace output capacity. SHC = Sensible HeatConstant (see table below), an air velocity meter or airflow hood can give a moreaccurate reading of the system CFM. The measurement for temperature rise shouldbe performed at the indoor coil inlet and near the outlet, but out of direct line of sightof the heater element or heat exchanger. For best results, measure air temperatureat multiple points and average the measurements to obtain coil inlet and outlet tem-peratures.
10.0 EVACUATION AND LEAK TESTING10.1 EVACUATION PROCEDUREEvacuation is the most important part of the entire service procedure. The life andefficiency of the equipment is dependent upon the thoroughness exercised by theserviceman when evacuating air and moisture from the system.
Air or nitrogen in the system causes high condensing temperatures and pressure,resulting in increased power input and non-verifiable performance.
Moisture chemically reacts with the refrigerant and oil to form corrosive hydrofluoricacid. This attacks motor windings and parts, causing breakdown.
• After the system has been leak-checked and proven sealed, connect the vacuumpump and evacuate system to 500 microns and hold 500 microns or less for atleast 15 minutes. The vacuum pump must be connected to both the high and lowsides of the system by connecting to the two pressure ports. Use the largest sizeconnections available since restrictive service connections may lead to falsereadings because of pressure drop through the fittings.
• After adequate evacuation, open both service valves by removing both brass ser-vice valve caps with an adjustable wrench. Insert a 3/16” [5 mm] or 5/16” [8 mm]hex wrench into the stem and turn counterclockwise until the wrench stops.
• At this time gauges must be connected to the access fitting on the liquid line
(small) service valve and the common suction port connected to the common suc-tion line between the reversing valve and compressor to check and adjust charge.
IMPORTANT: Compressors (especially scroll type) should never be used to evacu-ate the air conditioning system because internal electrical arcing may result in adamaged or failed compressor. Never run a scroll compressor while the system is ina vacuum or compressor failure will occur.
10.2 FINAL LEAK TESTINGAfter the unit has been properly evacuated and service valves opened, a halogenleak detector should be used to detect leaks in the system. All piping within the heatpump, evaporator, and interconnecting tubing should be checked for leaks. If a leakis detected, the refrigerant should be recovered before repairing the leak. TheClean Air Act prohibits releasing refrigerant into the atmosphere.

11.0 CHECKING REFRIGERANT CHARGECharge for all systems should be checked against the Charging Chart inside theaccess panel cover.
IMPORTANT:Use factory-approved charging method as outlined on the next 4
pages to ensure proper system charge.
11.1 CHARGING UNITS WITH R-410A REFRIGERANT
Charge for all systems should be checked against the Charging Chart inside theaccess panel cover.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate the compressor without charge in the system.
Addition of R-410A will raise high-side pressures (liquid, and discharge).
The following method is used for charging systems in the cooling and heatingmode. All steps listed should be performed to insure proper charge has been set.For measuring pressures, the service valve port on the liquid valve (small valve)and the service port on the suction line between the reversing valve and compressor are to be used.
CONFIRM ID AIR FLOW & COILS ARE CLEAN
Confirm adequate Indoor supply air flow prior to starting the system. See theTechnical Specification sheet for rated air flow for each ID/OD unit match. Airfilter(s) and coils (indoor & outdoor) are to be clean and free of frost prior to startin
the system. Supply Air flow must be between 375 and 450 cfm per rated cooling tprior to adjusting system charge. If a humidification system is installed disengage from operating prior to charge adjustment. Refer to the “Checking Airflow” sectionthis manual for further instruction.
! WARNINGThe top of the scroll compressor shell is hot. Touching the compressortop may result in serious personal injury.
! NOTICEThe optimum refrigerant charge for any outdoor unit matched with aCFL/CFM/H*L indoor coil/air handler is affected by the application.Therefore, charging data has been developed to assist the field technicianin optimizing the charge for all mounting configurations (UF – Upflow, DF
– downflow, LH – Left Hand Discharge, and RH – Right Hand Discharge).Refer to the charging chart inside the access panel cover on the unit andchoose the appropriate column for the specific application being installedor serviced. New installations utilizing either a CFL/CFM indoor coilinstalled on a gas furnace or an H*L air handler in the downflow or hori-zontal right hand discharge may require removal of refrigerant since thefactory charge could result in an overcharge condition.
! CAUTIONR-410A pressures are approximately 60% higher (1.6 times) than R-22pressures. Use appropriate care when using this refrigerant. Failure toexercise care may result in equipment damage or personal injury.
! NOTICESystem maintenance is to be performed by a qualified and certified technician.
! NOTICEVerify system components are matched according to the outdoor unitSpecification Sheet.

11.2 MEASUREMENT DEVICE SETUPStep 1. With an R410A gauge set, attach the high pressure hose to the access
fitting on the liquid line (small) service valve at the OD unit.
Step 2. Attach the low pressure hose to the common suction port connected to thecommon suction line between the reversing valve and compressor.
Step 3. Attach a temperature probe within 6” outside of the unit on the copperliquid line (small line). For more accurate measurements clean the copperline prior to measurement and use a calibrated clamp on temperatureprobe or an insulated surface thermocouple.
11.3 CHARGING BY WEIGHT
For a new installation, evacuation of interconnecting tubing and indoor coil isadequate; otherwise, evacuate the entire system. Use the factory charge shown in“Electrical and Physical Data” on page 6 of these instructions or on the unit dataplate. Note that the charge value includes charge required for 15 ft. [4.6 m] ofstandard-size inter-connecting liquid line without a filter drier. Calculate actualcharge required with installed liquid line size and length using:
1/4” [6.4 mm] O.D. = .3 oz./ft. [8.5 g/.30 m]
5/16” [7.9 mm] O.D. = .4 oz./ft. [11.3 g/.30 m]3/8” [9.5 mm] O.D. = .6 oz./ft. [17.0 g/.30 m]1/2” [12.7 mm] O.D. = 1.2 oz./ft. [34.0 g/.30 m]Add 6 oz. for field-installed filter drier.
With an accurate scale (+/– 1 oz. [28.3 g]) or volumetric charging device, adjustcharge difference between that shown on the unit data plate and that calculated forthe new system installation. If the entire system has been evacuated, add the totalcalculated charge.
IMPORTANT:Charging by weight is not always accurate since the application canaffect the optimum refrigerant charge. Charging by weight is considered a startingpoint ONLY. Always check the charge by using the charging chart and adjust asnecessary.CHARGING BY LIQUID SUB-COOLING MUST BE USED FOR FINALCHARGE ADJUSTMENT.
With thermostat in the “Off” position, turn the power on to the furnace or air handlerand the heat pump. Start the heat pump and the furnace or air handler with thethermostat.
11.4 GROSS CHARGING BY PRESSURESStep 1. Following air flow verification and charge weigh in, run the unit for a
minimum of 15 minutes prior to noting pressures and temperature.
IMPORTANT:Indoor conditions as measured at the indoor coil must be within 2°Fof the following during gross charge (pressure) evaluation:
Cooling Mode: 80°F Dry BulbHeating Mode: 70°F Dry Bulb

Field wiring must comply with the National Electric Code (C.E.C. in Canada) aany applicable local code.
12.1 POWER WIRINGIt is important that proper electrical power from a commercial utility is availablethe heat pump contactor. Voltage ranges for operation are shown in Table 4.
Install a branch circuit disconnect within sight of the unit and of adequate size handle the starting current (see Table 1).
Power wiring must be run in a rain-tight conduit. Conduit must be run through tconnector panel below the access cover (see Figure 1) and attached to the bottoof the control box.
Connect power wiring to contactor located in outdoor heat pump electrical box. (Swiring diagram attached to unit access panel.)
Check all electrical connections, including factory wiring within the unit and masure all connections are tight.
DO NOT connect aluminum field wire to the contactor terminals.
12.2 GROUNDINGA grounding lug is provided near the contactor for a ground wire.
12.3 CONTROL WIRING(See Figure 7)
If the low voltage control wiring is run in conduit with the power supply, Class I inslation is required. Class II insulation is required if run separate. Low voltage wirimay be run through the insulated bushing provided in the 7/8” [22.2 mm] hole in tbase panel, up to and attached to the pigtails from the bottom of the control boConduit can be run to the base panel if desired by removing the insulated bushing
A thermostat and a 24 volt, 40 VA minimum transformer are required for the contcircuit of the condensing unit. The furnace or the air handler transformer may
used if sufficient. See the wiring diagram for reference.
! WARNINGTurn off electric power at the fuse box or service panel before making anyelectrical connections.

13.0 FIELD INSTALLED ACCESSORIES13.1 COMPRESSOR CRANKCASE HEATER (CCH)
While scroll compressors usually do not require crankcase heaters, there areinstances when a heater should be added. Refrigerant migration during the off cyclecan result in a noisy start up. Add a crankcase heater to minimize refrigerationmigration, and to help eliminate any start up noise or bearing “wash out.”
NOTE: The installation of a crankcase heater is recommended if the system chargeexceeds the values in Table 5.
All heaters are located on the lower half of the compressor shell. Its purpose is todrive refrigerant from the compressor shell during long off cycles, thus preventing
damage to the compressor during start-up.At initial start-up or after extended shutdown periods, make sure the heater is ener-gized for at least 12 hours before the compressor is started. (Disconnect switch onand wall thermostat off.)
13.2 LOW AMBIENT CONTROL (LAC) – COOLING MODE ONLY - RXAD-A08This component senses compressor head pressure and shuts the heat pump fan offwhen the head pressure drops to approximately 220 PSIG [1516.8 kPa]. Thisallows the unit to build a sufficient head pressure at lower ambient in order to main-tain system balance and obtain improved capacity. Low ambient control should beused on all equipment operated below 70°F [21.1°C] ambient.
